Dalglish To Edge Derby

Live on Skysports 1: Sun 14.05: Kenny Dalglish’s home-coming starts with a tough test against Everton – The Reds are 5/4 (888sport).

Kenny Dalglish heads back to Anfield for his first home match in charge of Liverpool and for the small matter of a Merseyside derby showdown against Everton.

With home advantage, the Reds are 888sport’s 5/4 favourites while David Moyes’ side are underdogs at 13/5 courtesy of Partybets, but consecutive victories against Tottenham and Scunthorpe have boosted morale in the Toffees camp and a high proportion of punters, neutral ones at least, are expected to back the draw at 23/10 with Totesport.

Nevertheless, the Dalglish factor could give the hosts a lift on their own turf and they’re worth considering at 5/2 (888Sport) to shade it by a one-goal margin.
